Community Governance

Community Government leaders are busy people who often wear a number of different hats in the community – in addition to being on Council, many also work, operate businesses, volunteer and have families. Having a clear idea of what your role is as a Mayor/Chief or as a Councilor is important so that you can lead effectively and provide broad oversight to ensure the community government is well governed.

This section is intended to provide key information to Mayors/Chiefs and Councilors, and to the administrative staff who support Councils in making sound decisions and in leading the community effectively.
